I think people really underestimate the impact a guy like Mark Martin has on a team. If you've watched that "inside MWR," you'll notice he's at every team meeting in person. Even if he didn't race that weekend. When Bowyer, Waltrip, and Truex were all demoralized after Talladega, there was Mark Martin sitting right there talking about what went down, even though he didn't turn a lap.

To clarify: Waltrip hid in his office feeling sorry for himself, Truex consoled Mikey but skipped the meeting too, and Bowyer also skipped.

Shadow Blasko:Damnit.. I use Mobil 1, but that commercial is starting to make me regret it.

Hamilton is leaving McLaren for Mercedes next year, so the likelihood of those commercials being repeated much longer are diminishing. The banter between Smoke and Ham is good, they just need to either cut more, or play them less.
